I know this pattern works in general, because I maintain several Python packages in which it is used.
I tried modifying python-fixit to patch requirements.txt as you described. I confirmed the line appeared in the “prepped” source as you have written. Then I built it with mock and installed it into a Rawhide chroot without difficulty.
My best guess is that there was a mix-up in which RPM version you were trying to install—something that’s probably happened to all of us. Perhaps you built it in Rawhide and didn’t use --enablerepo=local when testing the installation?
Ah, that's likely what happened. And indeed, < '3.7' is better. Thanks!
Now we have something we can upstream, while just yanking out that line likely won't fly:
